Stella

Chapter 1

My name is Stella, I was named after the stars because my parents thought that i was going to be beautiful, original, one of a kind, but that's just no the truth.

I live in Connecticut in a little house on the beach with my mom, dad and little brother. I go to Latex high school. I was born in a little unknown town called Latex. My best friend is called Samantha but I call her Sam. She lives a couple of houses down from mine. We walk to school together everyday. We met when we were little kids and have been best friends ever since. It's only one more day till summer. This is the first summer that Sam is going to be gone for the whole summer, because her grandfather died and she has to go to his funeral. I was so sad when she told me. We had spent every single summer together since day one. This was a big change for both of us.

Summer is fear the leaves are blowing and the ocean waves are crashing but the laughs and giggles from Sam's mouth are not hear and that is the thing that is blocking everything good out of my summer, the fact that Sam is not hear. The basement were we would have the best sleepovers and talk about boys was empty. It felt like there was a big part of my summer missing. No disrespect to Sam's grandpa but I wish he had died in the winter not in the summer. So now (because of sam's grandpa) I am sitting all alone on the sandy beach all by my self. I hear a kid laughing on the phone turn around and see him.
